Answer: the perimeter of the larger triangle is 22 units
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram of both triangles is shown in the attached photo. The isosceles triangles are triangle ABC and triangle DEF
Perimeter of triangle ABC = 11
For an isosceles triangle, the other two sides are equal. If one equal side is x, then the sum of the two equal sides is x+x = 2x
Perimeter of triangle = sum of the lengths of the 3 sides. Therefore,
11 = 5 + 2x
2x = 11-5 = 6
x = 6/2 = 3
The base of the similar triangle is 10. It means that it is 2 times the base of the smaller triangle. That means the scale factor is 2. Therefore,
If the perimeter of the small triangle is 11, the Perimeter of the larger triangle will be 2 × perimeter of the smaller triangle. This becomes
2 × 11 = 22 units.
It can also be determined by adding the length of each side
3×2 + 3×2 + 5×2 = 6+6+10 = 22 units
Answer:
x ≥ 7
Step-by-step explanation:
|x - 7| = x - 7
A. For each absolute, find the intervals
x - 7 ≥ 0 x - 7 < 0
x ≥ 7 x < 7
If x ≥ 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 > 0.
If x < 7, |x - 7| = x - 7 < 0. No solution.
B. Solve for x < 7
Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as
+(x - 7) = x - 7
x - 7 = x - 7
-x + 14 = x
14 = 2x
x = 7
7 ≮7. No solution
C. Solve for x ≥ 7
Rewrite |x - 7| = x - 7 as
+(x - 7) = x - 7
x - 7 = x - 7
True for all x.
D. Merge overlapping intervals
No solution or x ≥ 7
⇒ x ≥ 7
The diagram below shows that the graphs of y = |x - 7| (blue) and of y = x - 7 (dashed red) coincide only when x ≥ 7.
Answer:
y = (x + 8)² + 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a parabola in vertex form is
y = a(x - h)² + k
where (h, k) are the coordinates of the vertex and a is a multiplier
To obtain this form use the method of completing the square
add/subtract (half the coefficient of the x- term )² to x² + 16x
y = x² + 2(8)x + 64 - 64 + 70
= (x + 8)² + 6 ← in vertex form
First month's profit of the company = $2,400.
After the first month, the profit is modeled by the function
J(t) = 2.5t + 1,250, t is the number of months after the first month the shop opened.
Now, P(t) describes the total profit earned by the company.
So, P(t) = (Profit earned from first month) + (Profit earned from remaining 11 months of the year)
= 2400 + (2.5t + 1250)
<u><em>= 2.5t + 3650</em></u>
Hence, total profit earned for the year = 2.5t + 3650.
